How I became a KM teacher

Back in 1997, I saw an ad in the paper for a Kindermusik storytime at a local bookstore in Lewisville. I took my then-pregnant self, my 2 1/2 year old daughter and didn't really have anything in mind except to have fun with music! After I left, I had the Kindermusik headquarters phone number in hand and the numbers of the two wonderful educators who conducted the storytime (and who I felt like I knew my whole life and not just 30 minutes!). It was one of those life-changing things: I just KNEW this was what I was meant to do. I can't explain it any other way! I called the number to get an information pack and the rest is history. I was in Houston, TX three weeks later for a week-long training and I started to teach after I had my second child. My children are Kindermusik graduates and were in some of my first classes back then! (Now I live with a vocalist and guitarist and love the music around this place!).

I tell people all the time about Kindermusik because of the deep belief I have in the program and what it does for families, for children's growth, and for their minds. I know you tell others too, because so many of your friends have come, and for that I thank you.

In-house re-enrollment is now in progress just for YOU before I advertise locally. Remit your deposit and pay the remainder on the first class in January.

I'm so glad you shared this story, Heidi. I LOVE it that you were seated in a Fundamentals class 2 weeks after you'd ever heard of Kindermusik before! Testimony to the great power of this program.- Launa

About Me

When i was young, I seemed to have a natural instinct and interest for music and sound, and thankfully my parents took notice and started me in piano lessons when I was 8. I have never “quit”. I have enjoyed music all of my life and an convinced of its ability to calm, enrich, and heal. My work is to help others to see this gift, and plant seeds in the children. I may never see them bloom and bear fruit, but I know the work I do is important and long-lasting work and I trust that it will not return void. I am blessed. Please leave a comment, I'd love to hear from you!
